On this week’s episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is bringing you an encore episode of his conversation with Lainey Wilson.
Over the past decade, Wilson has blossomed into a bonafide country star and recently performed in the 2025 Grammy Awards.
The Southern-bred singer has written tracks with Luke Combs, made her acting debut in Yellowstone (as well as had her songs featured on its soundtrack), and devised her own genre, “bell bottom country.”
The sound combines Southern rock, soul, and a distinctly Nashvillian POV, where she now resides. That’s best heard on her latest album, Whirlwind, which continues to play with the boundaries of her sound and includes a wistful duet with Miranda Lambert.
Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also watch the episode over at Veeps.
